Professor Millar’s research interests are in the areas of astrochemistry and star formation, combining theoretical modelling with observations of molecular emission lines using the ALMA interferometer in Chile. I also collaborate with theoretical and experimental chemists to study reactions that are critical in astrochemistry. 

His research has attracted funding from a number of sources including the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council, the Royal Society, NATO, the Leverhulme Trust, the British Council and the European Union (FP6, FP7 & H2020).
